What happens if I do not pay my membership fee on time?
Timely payment of membership fees is important for maintaining your active membership status and uninterrupted access to SSHIA services and benefits.

If your membership fee is not paid by the renewal deadline, your membership status changes to Grace Period for 30 days. During this period, you retain read-only access to the portal but cannot register for training, access premium resources, or vote in elections. After the 30-day grace period, your membership is suspended and portal access is fully restricted. To reinstate a suspended membership, you must pay all outstanding fees plus a reinstatement fee. Memberships suspended for more than 12 months require a fresh application.
SSHIA sends automated reminders at 60 days, 30 days, 14 days, and 7 days before your renewal date. If you are experiencing financial hardship, contact the SSHIA Membership Desk before your renewal date to discuss a payment plan or fee waiver. SSHIA has a hardship fund for members in genuine financial difficulty.
